Today I had the pleasure to speak to Selma Selman - a multidisciplinary artist from Bosnia and Herzegovina and of Romani origin. She is currently a resident of the Rijksakademie in Amsterdam and her work can be seen at Dokumenta 15 in Kassel till 25th of Sep 2022.
In this episode Selma shares stories of her past and sheds light onto her artistic and activist practice that aim to protect and enable female bodies and enact a cross-scalar approach to collective self-emancipation of oppressed women and ethnic minorities.
